Shelving Locations

The libary uses the Library of Congress organization scheme. In this scheme, books are assigned letters and numbers for purposes of organization. To find a book, you will need to know its call number. You can get the call number by looking up the book you want in our online catalog.

Books and journals are located on the 3rd and 4th floors of both library buildings. For detailed maps, please view our library floor plans.
